I am a huge fan of "When You Reach Me" by Rebecca Stead and that book is often mentioned in the same conversation as "Once Was a Time." Both books deal with the concept of time travel, but not in a science fiction way. The concept of time travel is really a peripheral idea.The story is about a young girl named Charlotte and her friend Kitty who live in England during World War II. Charlotte's father is a scientist for the British government, studying the idea of time travel. One night, Charlotte and Kitty are kidnapped. Just as tragedy is about to happen, Charlotte finds a time portal and jumps through it. She is instantly transported to Wisconsin in 2013. Here she begins a new life as an American teenager, complete with mean girls and overprotective foster parents.Then, one day, something happens that changes Charlotte's life and sends her on an incredible journey to find Kitty.I loved this book. It was exciting and beautifully written. There are many different tributes to other beautiful books, including "A Little Princess." And, not to give anything away, but the end, which could have been extremely cheesy or overly dramatic, was just about perfect. Seriously, I had a tear in my eye as I read the last page.I would definitely recommend this book for middle grade students. It is probably appropriate for children toward the end of 3rd grade, but would be a great read for students in the fourth grade and up. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great read at any age *by L***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2021* "In the war-ravaged England of 1940, Charlotte Bromley is sure of only one thing: Kitty McLaughlin is her best friend in the whole world. But when Charlotte's scientist father makes an astonishing discovery that the Germans will covet for themselves, Charlotte is faced with an impossible choice between danger and safety. Should she remain with her friend or journey to another time and place? Her split-second decision has huge consequences, and when she finds herself alone in the world, unsure of Kitty's fate, she knows that somehow, some way, she must find her way back to her friend. Written in the spirit of classic time-travel tales, this book is an imaginative and heartfelt tribute to the unbreakable ties of friendship." This book is as described - an enjoyable read for any age. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/39944066-once-was-a-time-hardcover-april-5-2016](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/39944066-once-was-a-time-hardcover-april-5-2016) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
